*The Government of Ireland Act (Section 24) provides for payment to the Government of Northern Ireland of its share of reserved taxes, after deducting the Northern Ireland contribution to Imperial liabilities and expenditure and the cost of reserved services. A net payment of £4,014,814 is shown on this account in the Finance Accounts, 1925-26, page 43, but the final sum due in respect of 1925-26 is not yet determined.

These sums are recovered from the Northern Ireland residuary share of reserved taxes before arriving at the net sum referred to at* above.

This sum except as regards the small amount in respect of Pensions Appeal Tribunals (an Imperial Service) is recovered from the Northern Ireland residuary share of reserved

taxes.

§ These sums are paid in cash to Departments.
